So called walk around at Norris Pavilion on
Friday night last In spite of the ugly con-
dition of the roads, the folks commenced
pouring in from all directions, from far and
near, about o'elock in the evening, dressed
in their best, the women, however, excelling
the men, The hall very soon after assumed
the aspect of an immense bee hive, and the
fun began, such as promenadIng or walk
around, accompanied by the whole crowd with
vocal music, each singing at the top of his
voice to the tune Sugars sweet and so are
you," powerful enough to almost raise the
roof off the building; then swinging around
partners and dancing, the scene became per-
fectly bewildering, the motion of the dancers
faster and faster, the voices of the men and
the screar-7 of the women more deafening.

This sort of excitement vas k5pt up for two
hours in succession, and ceased only for the
short time while refreshments were being
handed around. Amongst the various per-
formances was a quadrille, danced to the
music of mouth organ, jews harp and pat
ting juba, which was rich as well as charac-
terstc Then the wild scene as before was
repeated, resembling very much the war
dances of the Caffirs of Africa. While the
scene was at its height it struck your cores
pondent that this is twenty-five years after the
var, and the actors with few exceptions)
not half ciyilized yet At late hour the as

closing we will quote the expression used by
one of the generals of the late war-"The
colored troops fought nobly."

On Tuesday last the 18th annual election
for President and six Directors of the West
minister Gas Light Company was held at the
company's office, in the Farmers and Me-
chanjcsf National Bank, and the old officers
were re- elected, viz President John l..
Reifsnider; Directors, Hon. Chas. b. Roberts,
Edward Lynch, VIM. A. Cunningham, Robert
C. Hall, Chas. T. Reifsnider and Charles v.
Wantz. The report of the Secretary and
Treasurer, Mr.. VIM. A. Cunningham, was
submitted and showed that the company was
in fairly prosperous condition. For seven
teen years the company has struggled along,
and the officers, though at times disheartened,
have had the endorsement of the stockhold-
ers, notwithstanding the fact that for many
years no dividend was earned, but they had
faith in the undertaking and have kept the
works going, when it was to their financial
loss On Tuesday there were ls2 shares sts.;. IS

1870. This fact was very gratifying to the
officers. At the close of the election, the Off

Quite large number of sleighs were out, as

But few more society events will occur, one

ments.
Postmaster Brown visited Easton this week,
to arrange for the meeting of the State Agrl-
cultural Fair, in conjunction with the Talbot
County Fair at that place in the fall. His
reception there was of a most cordial charac-
ter, as many saw in him the next Governor
of Maryland. The Maryland State Agricul..

Pistol shooting and pistol carrying has been
practiced to a considerable extent by the boys
of this community Justice Shipley called a

last week to arrest lad nine years old, who
was armed with an empty revolver.

desire

To the Citizens Of Westminster Il desire
to call attention to defect in the construc-
ton ct nearly all of the houses in this city,
which l feel assured needs only to be sug-
geEted in order to be corrected. Most houses
in Westminster have shinge roofs, and but
few are supplied with trap doors or man
holes. In the event of roof catching fire
from chimney or, during u conaagration,
from the sparks from burning building,
there is no means of reaching it except by the
use of ladders. During the time which is
necessarily consumed in giving the alarm and
dragging the apparatus to the spot, a fire thus
started, in most cases, will gain such Roadway
that it will be impossible to check it until
after great damage has been done to the
building, when if provided with a proper out
let in the roof, the flames could be extinguish-
ed with few buckets of water, Let me
urge each property owner to act upon this
suggestion. and to act at once, both for the
